HOW TO MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it.

Hey guys n gals how are you all? Great I hope🤔 now today I'm not really sure what I'm melting down but that's half the fun of pulling these pieces apart as you never know what to expect but I saw it at the scrapyard it was very heavy and I thought it'll be a fun little project. Almost 5 kg of metal to add to the stack so very happy with the end result. Now I did stamp the bar incorrectly but you'll see that in the video. Ok it's time to sit back enjoy the extra long video today and I will see all you sensational subs next Friday. And as always have a happy safe weekend😀👋🏻
😏👍🤝
Moreover friend what is the name of your spray that you apply on junked screws to remove them easily?
Thanks have a great weekend ..
@@aniljoshi9500 it's WD40 spray
Hope to see some new alloys like Constantan.
I don't speak English well, so I write through an online translator. I look forward to your every video every Friday! Each of your projects is amazing! It is very interesting to watch how you melt all kinds of wires, pipes, machine parts. All this is very exciting! And now I'm watching your new video and eating toast with cocoa. Thank you for your tremendous work!
Your English is just fine!
Very good translation! I’m sure yours is better than mine and I’m a native speaker 😬
Dude your English is just fine
Bro your English is great
@@milesmcdonald7883 like ur name
My father and I used to watch your videos together and used to talk a lot about metals. As we have a business of our own of these metals.
I lost my father last year due to Covid and now whenever I watch your videos, it reminds me of him and all fun we had together.
He was fascinated by all the Nordic Gold !!
I love this channel. I wait for each Friday to look at the new melting as soon as it is uploaded.
I’m very sorry to hear about your dad. Hopefully ur doing alright. Best wishes to u and the family btw FUCK COVID 🖕🏻🦠
My condolences
@@hocares8987 Aww, that's nice of Ho.
Glad you have those memories with your dad, dude. My condolences
So sorry for the loss of your father; I ache for you. Nice that you have memories of him and you watching this channel. Take care. Hugs.
Also...Love the running joke with the 10mm. Kills me each time. lmao
Hey there
bigstackD Casting, thats a very high power inverter, those IGBT (Insulated gate bipolar transistore) blocks & capacitors If they work which they probably do are worth a small fortune, the logc boards often blow on these but the main switching gear survives, i used to love taring down or fixing things like this but my hobby has be taken away from me by silly men with clipboards.
i simply cant get stuff like this in the UK any more becuese of a rash of stupid regulations now stopping me from buying at dumps & scrapyards
Like everything else in the UK, the taxman doesn't like the competition. Reminds me of the Tax Man song from the Beatles.
well my guess would of been close. for it looks like the charger for our forklifts that run on nothing but batteries
The first thing I noticed were the monster caps. They reminded me of caps I used once in a dye laser.
@@spokanetomcat1 dam are you guys brazil
where would you sell the IGBTs and capacitors?
Hehehe, I got a good laugh out of that 10mm socket container. Especially the one in the miniature "break in case of emergency" box.
Schrodinger's sockets, huh? They sit in a flux of existing and not all at once, up until the box is opened. I love how there were five in there to start out with, then only two left when returning back to it later on.
ok furry
but ye, found that funny too...also if you ain't one...oh well, i just say ok furry to what seems to be, what i think, a furry
@@DieseltheWhiteTailedBuck I’m not afraid to admit it. Yes I’m furry.
@@foxyloon local furry bullies other local furry
New neighbors had to replace their water heater. Was sitting in their back yard for about a week, and I offered to take care of it for them.
Pulled 7kg of copper, 5kg of brass, and 4 kg of bronze out of it. Think I'll make a BBQ out of the shell. . .
Cause of failure? Galvanic corrosion of the thermocouple. Copper, bronze, brass, and steel all in contact at the one spot at the base that has electrical potential.
Going to teach their kids to sandcast tin this summer.
It’s 2 in the morning, thanks the the upload so I can get less sleep😁
Never thought I would tell another man this, but......... I fall asleep with you often. Thank you for another amazing video
You're not alone, sometimes I put my headphones on and just listen to this in the background, while trying to fall asleep. The sounds of ocean or rain with lightning don't cut it. But the Roar of the Furnace and the sound of the polishing do the trick. It's just really relaxing.
😆😂🤣😅
u just had to say it like that
Think about how many of us watching bigstackD when we go to sleep, its like a massive sleepover 😁😴
😂 Hahaha dont let him read this, but it is true.
It is NOT, his videos are so boring, they are so relaxing 😎 😊
I emailed you a few days ago and was pleasantly surprised to find that you had replied within a few hours. For those of y’all who are fans like me I’d just like to say this guy is worth watching! I received nothing but kind words of encouragement and support! He gave me detailed instructions on what to do and how to start smelting. Thank you BigstackD! Stay safe and keep up the great work! 👍🏻👌🏻👊🏻
3 AM in my country. Perfect for my insomnia

@@slamdancer1720 4 here too, best time to watch
there is something intellectually satisfying about melting a heatsink
I really like these videos, i don't know why. That said seeing the recycling process really makes a point of why reusing comes before recycling. Even when it is totally justified because none of them work anymore, its heartbreaking seeing all those components and parts used just for material when you think about all of the energy, time and cost went into making them. Also how much value, including but not only monetary, is lost when something breaks and can't be repaired so the only option is to salvage it.
@Forrest Farris I totally agree, and that's why reducing waste, IE not buying wasteful / obsolescent items , is the first part of the chain.
IDK, maybe it's just that the gearhead in me get all "lets fix this" every time i see some rusty bucket of bolts so It just breaks my heart seeing machines left to rot to the point they are only worth the salvage.
Melting the metal uses quite a bit of gas so the project is not carbon neutral.
@@geffreimaudeleyne6041 No one ever claimed it was. Still a hell of a lot less energy (and therefore carbon) intensive than processing raw ore into metals though.
Well said! I work in disaster mitigation and have been able to put dozens of our very costly equipment back into service without material costs only labor simply by tearing down non-repairable machines and saving the good parts. I absolutely hate waste.
I love when he does a scrapyard melt with some random machine; they are always the best!
Time for the morning dose of Big D! Uh oh...that sounds wrong ;)
Greetings from Quebec, I've been watching your videos for a while and I must admit, I enjoy them very much. The prep, the melt, the cleanup, very satisfying. Please, Keep up the great work, make people smile.
Greetings from Mexico City. I always look forward to your videos, they cheered me up when I was in quarantine, I tested positive for COVID, thank you, your videos calm me down. Blessings
Heres a 🍪
Hope you are better now
Feel better and COVID better F#$& off
you have a perfect "thing" for youtube. great videos, very interesting & consistent. You will have 10 million subs one day I promise.
Just discovered this channel two days ago because I just bought my first kiln as I call it. Learning alot. I too am a dog lover.
The 10mm individual tote 👍
Beautifully clean aluminum.
Lol currently watching at 4:02 AM
It’s 1:06 am for me haha
Looks like this unit was a variable speed motor controller. Took AC power in on the left, went through a big transformer, rectifiers, and large capacitors to make high voltage DC, then went through an inverter to make variable speed 3-phase AC which output on the right. The rectifier and inverter modules were bolted to the aluminum heat sink. Transformer was on the bottom left, capacitors on the middle right. Several circuit boards controlled the motor speed, power, and enforced protection for overcurrent, overspeed, etc. Control panel looked like it had buttons to manually raise or lower the speed.
It is an inverter. The sticker is at 5:27.
I absolutely cannot get enough of these videos. The king of casting never fails to give us an amazing video. Keep em coming BigStackD!
The mold being super heated sure helped the finish on that copper. Ty for the video
Wall mounted battery charging unit for Forklifts 🤔
Every week I wonder how the hell you do the 29:30 minute footage 😂🤷♀️ Amazing video, as always! Very relaxing to watch the entire process, all the way from disassembly to polishing. Thank you for all the effort and care to deliver us a video with such quality every week. Have a nice rest of the weekend, cheers from Brazil 🍻
Yes the videos are really starting to get longer but I don’t want to cut out anything that I would like to show and when you’ve got six hours of footage per video it’s quite easy to get these a lot longer than people would like. But I’m glad you like them and I’m glad you hang around and watch them😁👌🏻
@@bigstackD No, I mean the 360 footage at 29:30 mark. I always wonder how they were made since there is no visible support for the camera to rotate 😂 But wow, I imagine it's hard to edit 6 hours of video. Keep up your great work, and we'll be sure to watch all of them, regardless of size. the more the merrier 😊
Okay yeah I read that wrong but in my defence I was melting today and have had quite a few frosty brews. I just thought you meant how could I fill up half an hour of just melting shit👍🏻.
If you email me on the link below I can let you know what I use and give you photos and a link , I don’t want to mention what I’m using in the comments for those spinning shots as I am tired of all these other casting channels copying all my quirky stuff🙄.
bigstackddddd@mail.com
If you only knew how much I look forward to these videos every week.
BigStackD, I appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos and giving us a peak into your life.
My life has been crazy, a bad dream, this past month. Your videos help me relax and decompress after days of repeated panic attacks and anxiety . Thank you 🙏🏼
Hey D, that sure was a lot of work tearing that thing down. I'm loving the rounded corners on the molds. The mold you poured the copper in was glowing just as red as the copper. IMHO that seemed like it worked out pretty well. Great job on all 3 metals. I love how awesome they look polished and stamped. You've definitely became a master at your craft! 💙✌️
Cheers SuzyQ I appreciate that😉
Been waiting all morning for this.
I don't know what I like better:
The way you disassemble everything to get to the metals, or the melts. Either way, I love your work. Keep it up.
Love watching you go to the scrap yard and bringing something home to break down and melt. Would love to see more castings. The bars are fun, but still neat to see what goes into making other stuff.
Thanks for putting the lbs as well as the kg because it's definitely a bit of extra work for you but it's much more convenient for people like me who don't wanna do the math in their head. Thanks for the great videos :)
Just wanna say great content. I have massive sleeping problems. And this stuff helps me sleep. I love the sound of the furnace. And the metal bars clangimg around. Keep up the great work😊
Hey 👋 Northern Michigan here. I work for a poured wall company in Petoskey Michigan. We are taking part in a big remodel on a huge horse barn in Bay Harbor Michigan. I check the dumpster every time we are there. Fire suppression guy was there changing out water pipe and replacing sprinkler heads....he threw pounds and pounds of brass out....and piles of short steel. I pulled every last piece out of that dumpster....all kinds of wire as well. A hundred here...a hundred there...means nothing to the rich....I'm not rich. I pull it. Awesome video friend. Been soooooooo windy and wet lately....no melts here in some time now....soon I hope!
This dude is living the good life in his videos, just doing his hobby in the garage with his dogs inside
It looks well built, I'm going with a charge controller
These videos are great on Friday, but every once in a while, I save them for Saturday morning, and the disassembly process is even more satisfying then.
2 questions: 1. Have you ever considered using a crucible as a mold, and 2. How do those 10mm sockets keep escaping?!😁
I’ve never ever considered using a Crucible as a mold although I have had a lot of metal freeze in the bottom of a few but basically you’re only looking at a small rounded ingot full of holes and doesn’t look very good at all. Maybe a small Crucible would make a better mold but until my small crucibles are at their end I’ll just leave that for now.
And the 10 mm bastards got out because I forgot to lock the side of the container🤦🏻♂️
Woohoo!! I couldn't sleep, saw it was 4:30am and thought "Oooh it's Friday!! bigstackD is meltin' sumpin'!! {0.o} 😆 😂 🤣
Love the "Emergency Break Glass" 10mm socket
Man... All your hard work sure translates into the most relaxing and enjoyable videos. I sure wish I could set you up with a pot of my Texas chili and some fajitas as just a thank you. Also, if you can pass on some pets to your Guardians of the BigstackD kingdom I would very much appreciate it!
That would be from the GREAT STATE of TEXAS. Howdy! ! ! From H-town
@@richardjohnson4373 - Howdy from north of the Golden Triangle! The chili recipe is from south of Corpus. It's an all Texas get-together on an Australian channel!
Awesome video! But please be careful with big capacitors, they might still carry a big charge. Always remember to short them!
Isn't that just in microwaves ??
Or is there more things trying to kill me
@@odinthoragnar2480 Capacitors exist in all electronics. The big ones can be very dangerous
Came to this channel as a curious hobby (I do not resell metal, just give it to scrappers) recycler that pulls tossed motors, plumbing fixtures etc from the trash to recycle the metals. Stayed for the oddly satisfying tear downs. Cheers brother!
14:08 that has to be the best Cooper melt shot I've seen in this channel
Perhaps the scrapyard is authorized a slightly generous scale round up for sales purposes??
Tuned in 8 minutes in and the count for views is 148.
How's that for an eager and loyal fan base?
Another great video.
Watching the aluminum melting,
reminded me of the last scene in the "Terminator" movie. Also brought back memories from when I was in junior high school, had the chance out of 40 other students to work in our small foundry. We did aluminum ingots. Turnnig them into various art molds. Whole process from shifting the sand , moisture check on sand, ramming the mold, final pour. It was great going into the next class all sweaty.
I stamp wrong all the time, and to see the human aspect from time to time absolutely delights me! Cheers to a 45 pound copper brick! I love it
Love the little bits of humor..the little head stareing at what your doing..made me laugh. Always enjoy your vlogs.
The boys are happy and healthy!
Great haul from that one piece of equipment!
Didja figure out what it was yet?🤔
I think it was a battery charger! (or a fancy jump pack!)LOL
Too bad about the misprint. Nobody's perfect!🙄
Thanx for a great vid D!
Hey buddy hit me up on my email And gimme your address, but not here , on my email . I got some shit I gonna send ya 👍🏻. bigstackddddd@mail.com
Another pleasant morning watching BigstackD melt useless equipment into usable blocks of metal. The Videos make for a good start to a Friday morning ( along with a good cup of coffee) today is the first day in a long time I was able tonwatch the whole video on my front porch without freezing to death or having my coffee cool down to an undrinkable state since Coffee must be consumed hot ( IMO ).
Hope everyone had a great day!
This is the most satisfying and relaxing channel on all of TH-cam
I believe it is a welder
Agree
Saya suka dengan semua konten anda ❤️❤️👍👍, sukses selalu dan sehat selalu
When this bloke learns how to do blacksmithing, it's game over.
Gotta say, my GF and I love the videos. We look forward to them every week. Her favorite parts are the snacks. So keep snacking.
When you get the scrap from the scrap yard, do they charge you scrap value or a set value for the stuff you want?
They obviously put a percentage mark up to make some profit but he probably gets what he paid for. If the scrap amount in the object is worth $50 then that is probably what he pays. The scrap yard paid $35 and made $15. Stacked probably ends up behind for usage of gas and stuff but makes a killing on Ad revenue. Win win all around.
Bigstacked said in his past videos. The scrap yard he goes to gives him the stuff for free. As long as he is not going to sell the metal afterwards. I'm pretty sure this is the deal he has with the scrap yard..
Actually Robert your half right, on a local industrial site when I go through the scrap bins my mate is the boss and he lets me take everything for free as long as I melt it down on a future video and keep it in the stack but at the scrapyard I basically pay close to what they buy it for, they look after me as a few of them watch my videos👊🏻😁

As Australia starts to get darker quicker and colder here in Canada it's starting to get nice and sunny. Thanks for returning the sun to us will enjoy it for the next few months.
Your videos are pure therapy I can watch them for hours..Greetings from Croatia and continue the good work.
Every time I see you need to cut something into pieces I half expect you to just pull out an ax, for some reason.
BigstackD,
Have you tried creating copper acetate crystals with the copper residu ?
More info can be found on
crystalverse copper-acetate-crystals
Just got off work, was good to relax and watch your video thank you for all your effort you put in your videos.
I like these multi-melting projects, with such a stuff containing all three types of metals to melt! Enjoy your time
Love the Jack Nicholson "Here's Johnny!" sculpture.
I like your shirt! Brings back so many childhood memories reading and watching tintin!
Hey bigstackD thnx for all the awesome content over the years still love the vids every fri. keep up the good work
Oh ,wow. Never been this early to a post. Cool! Love the channel.
I don't know if anyone else thinks the same way, but the best part about these melts is any sizable Aluminium pours, something about it just relaxes me and interests me more than any of the others. I could easily sit here and watch melts and pours of just aluminum for a very long time.
Nice haul. Love seeing different things being broken down and melted. Awesome pour brother. Cheers 🍻
It doesnt matter how well you speak a language... your videos are excellent and often times educational... keep it goinng and as always CHEERS!!!
Always enjoy the videos when I get out of work. Thank you and keep it up.
hello from Canada! I watch your videos before going to sleep, just like I am doing right now! thanks for making these videos! they help me relax!
Translation: “these videos are boring enough to put me to sleep.”
Great message bro.
Can't wait for the melt with the mixed dust! Another great video bigstackD! Hope you have a great weekend.
I LOVE your site. Want to sit here all day and watch, but I don’t have time. I’ll be back! Great work!!
What a Great melt.
I am hooked watching these videos on the TV.
The Giant picture of Metal pouring is Awesome.
Seeing those pups on the big screen, what a treat.
Let them both know they are super stars!!!!

Well thank you my friend I appreciate that😁👊🏻
The Leidenfrost Effect - never heard of that before. I always wondered. Never thought it had a name. Great vid!
Oh and your videos are super relaxing, I fall asleep in a good way.
And the Dragon's Horde continues to grow. Lovely.
you got me with the coveted 10mm sockets LOL
just found this channel and i found my new hobby thanks man
Loved this one! Love he disassembly part especially!
Always enjoy watching your channel on my lunch break at work. Cheers 🍻 big ears
Palm trees, perfect blue sky. We love Queensland!
Anyone else catch the other 10mm sockets missing when he went to put it back in the bin?
And yes, I got a nice laugh out of that bin.. TY...
I seem to have an obsession with collecting brass. The idea is to eventually buy a furnace to melt. My mrs takes the piss when I find some brass and say “that’s a nice bit of brass.
You dismantling that unit and saying the same thing, you’ve gained a subscriber 😂
As I’m a mechanic and love brass I have a suggestion… you should cast some 10mm sockets out of brass!
Always liked how aluminum has a very distinct 'plastic-like' phase just before it melts.
It's so good to see melting things into shiny stuff 😊 ty u are the best!!!!
Your expertise never ceases to AMAZE HAPPY-STACKING. I am an avid fan / & no, I don't generally state that fact!🤫
Your videos are awesome. Thank you for the relaxing time every video :)
@ 9:58 when you were putting the circuit boards aside, that gold colored object on the one board is a heat sink. Usually made of aluminium or copper. if it isn't screwed in place, simply pry it off to break the adhesive, maybe even heat it slightly with a heat gun first
I watch your vids to help wind down at the end of the day. Took me a whole weekend and 2 weekdays to get thru this video cuz work has been kicking my butt and I can’t stay awake for the whole video. Not saying the content is boring, just life sucks and these vids help switch it all off.
I love that little brass bar!!
So awesome. Yet relaxing. Seeing the south African rand on your beautiful value book is so cool
i love how u dont even need to speak but are funny af 💕 and i loveee your puppers !!! 💕🐕🐕
this took a hard work .. well done 👏🏻👏🏻💚
Another great video, I love seeing you melt metals down and make them into those glorious looking bars. Have you thought of making a bar shaped like a slab of chocolate? The Big Stack'D bar 🤔🤔
I bet the music in the car driving back home from the scrap yard isnt that pleasant classical twinkly music, but its likely some aussie metal with vocals capable of opening a demon portal.
good job man. I love the moment when you crash the ice
Your videos have always intrigued me because I've always wanted to do something like it. The sad thing is that my family doesn't have that much money right now s we can't get stuff but it's just as good watching you do it. Keep up the good work bigstackD.😁
